Software engineer at Telstra. Five years on micro-frontends, build systems and internal platform tools — the unglamorous layer that decides how fast everything else moves.

About
Five years in, the part I enjoy most is turning a fuzzy requirement into something people use without thinking about it.
Most of my work sits one layer below the product: the build that has to stay fast, the module boundaries that let separate teams ship without stepping on each other, the pipeline that has to be boring enough to trust on a Friday afternoon.
Before platform work I spent two years migrating legacy monoliths to React and cutting page load times. That taught me the same lesson from the other side: speed is a feature, and it's usually an architecture problem.
Away from the keyboard I read and write, follow cricket, play badminton and cycle. Vlogging about tech and travel is next on the list.
One deployable unit. Change a line of CSS, redeploy everything, hold your breath.
Off duty
Experience
Two enterprise engineering teams, most recently on the tooling other developers build on.
Pune, India
Leading development of high-performance micro-frontends and enterprise internal tools, with a focus on build systems and developer velocity.
Pune, India
Architected scalable UI systems for client teams. Migrated legacy monoliths to modern React architectures and improved page performance by 40%.
Skills
Grouped by where it sits in the stack rather than by how well I know it — every line here is something I've used on delivered work.
Interfaces, and the module boundaries between them
APIs and data layers that hold up under load
Pipelines, containers, reproducible infrastructure
The habits that make shipping uneventful
Projects
Real estate, health and manufacturing. Every one of these is live — the card takes you to the running site, not a case study.

Writing
Architecture, tooling, and the occasional note on how the work actually gets done.

Feedback from the teammates, leads and clients I shipped with.
Deovrat wrote solid, scalable code for our platform. We handled a massive traffic spike last month without any issues, thanks to his architecture.
He really understands the product side of things. I didn't have to explain every little detail; he just got it and built exactly what we needed.
Bringing Deovrat on board was a great move. He works fast, but doesn't cut corners. High quality work.
His code reviews saved us so much time down the line. He's great at spotting potential issues before they become problems.
We had a nasty database issue that slowed everything down. Deovrat jumped in and fixed it in a couple of days. Huge relief.
I love that he cares about design. The animations he added made the app feel so much smoother and more polished.
